This is intended to provide a parallel (threaded) ThinLTO scheme
for linker plugin use through the libLTO C API.
The intent of this patch is to provide a first implementation as a
proof-of-concept and allows linker to start supporting ThinLTO by
definiing the libLTO C API. Some part of the libLTO API are left
unimplemented yet. Following patches will add support for these.
The current implementation can link all clang/llvm binaries.

It turns out that terminatepad gives little benefit over a cleanuppad
which calls the termination function. This is not sufficient to
implement fully generic filters but MSVC doesn't support them which
makes terminatepad a little over-designed.

While we have successfully implemented a funclet-oriented EH scheme on
top of LLVM IR, our scheme has some notable deficiencies:
- catchendpad and cleanupendpad are necessary in the current design
but they are difficult to explain to others, even to seasoned LLVM
experts.
- catchendpad and cleanupendpad are optimization barriers. They cannot
be split and force all potentially throwing call-sites to be invokes.
This has a noticable effect on the quality of our code generation.
- catchpad, while similar in some aspects to invoke, is fairly awkward.
It is unsplittable, starts a funclet, and has control flow to other
funclets.
- The nesting relationship between funclets is currently a property of
control flow edges. Because of this, we are forced to carefully
analyze the flow graph to see if there might potentially exist illegal
nesting among funclets. While we have logic to clone funclets when
they are illegally nested, it would be nicer if we had a
representation which forbade them upfront.
Let's clean this up a bit by doing the following:
- Instead, make catchpad more like cleanuppad and landingpad: no control
flow, just a bunch of simple operands; catchpad would be splittable.
- Introduce catchswitch, a control flow instruction designed to model
the constraints of funclet oriented EH.
- Make funclet scoping explicit by having funclet instructions consume
the token produced by the funclet which contains them.
- Remove catchendpad and cleanupendpad. Their presence can be inferred
implicitly using coloring information.
N.B. The state numbering code for the CLR has been updated but the
veracity of it's output cannot be spoken for. An expert should take a
look to make sure the results are reasonable.

When working with tokens, it is often the case that one has instructions
which consume a token and produce a new token. Currently, we have no
mechanism to represent an initial token state.
Instead, we can create a notional "empty token" by inventing a new
constant which captures the semantics we would like. This new constant
is called ConstantTokenNone and is written textually as "token none".

Bypassing LLVM for this has a number of benefits:
1) Laziness support becomes asm-syntax agnostic (previously lazy jitting didn't
work on Windows as the resolver block was in Darwin asm).
2) For cross-process JITs, it allows resolver blocks and trampolines to be
emitted directly in the target process, reducing cross process traffic.
3) It should be marginally faster.
llvm-svn: 251933
Summary:
Add a `cleanupendpad` instruction, used to mark exceptional exits out of
cleanups (for languages/targets that can abort a cleanup with another
exception). The `cleanupendpad` instruction is similar to the `catchendpad`
instruction in that it is an EH pad which is the target of unwind edges in
the handler and which itself has an unwind edge to the next EH action.
The `cleanupendpad` instruction, similar to `cleanupret` has a `cleanuppad`
argument indicating which cleanup it exits. The unwind successors of a
`cleanuppad`'s `cleanupendpad`s must agree with each other and with its
`cleanupret`s.
Update WinEHPrepare (and docs/tests) to accomodate `cleanupendpad`.

This change moves LTOCodeGenerator's ownership of the merged module to a

This introduces the basic functionality to support "token types".
The motivation stems from the need to perform operations on a Value
whose provenance cannot be obscured.
There are several applications for such a type but my immediate
motivation stems from WinEH. Our personality routine enforces a
single-entry - single-exit regime for cleanups. After several rounds of
optimizations, we may be left with a terminator whose "cleanup-entry
block" is not entirely clear because control flow has merged two
cleanups together. We have experimented with using labels as operands
inside of instructions which are not terminators to indicate where we
came from but found that LLVM does not expect such exotic uses of
BasicBlocks.
Instead, we can use this new type to clearly associate the "entry point"
and "exit point" of our cleanup. This is done by having the cleanuppad
yield a Token and consuming it at the cleanupret.
The token type makes it impossible to obscure or otherwise hide the
Value, making it trivial to track the relationship between the two
points.
What is the burden to the optimizer? Well, it turns out we have already
paid down this cost by accepting that there are certain calls that we
are not permitted to duplicate, optimizations have to watch out for
such instructions anyway. There are additional places in the optimizer
that we will probably have to update but early examination has given me
the impression that this will not be heroic.

Originally added in r139314.
Back then it didn't actually get the address, it got whatever value the
relocation used: address or offset.
The values in different object formats are:
* MachO: Always an offset.
* COFF: Always an address, but when talking about the virtual address of
sections it says: "for simplicity, compilers should set this to zero".
* ELF: An offset for .o files and and address for .so files. In the case of the
.so, the relocation in not linked to any section (sh_info is 0). We can't
really compute an offset.
Some API mappings would be:
* Use getAddress for everything. It would be quite cumbersome. To compute the
address elf has to follow sh_info, which can be corrupted and therefore the
method has to return an ErrorOr. The address of the section is also the same
for every relocation in a section, so we shouldn't have to check the error
and fetch the value for every relocation.
* Use a getValue and make it up to the user to know what it is getting.
* Use a getOffset and:
* Assert for dynamic ELF objects. That is a very peculiar case and it is
probably fair to ask any tool that wants to support it to use ELF.h. The
only tool we have that reads those (llvm-readobj) already does that. The
only other use case I can think of is a dynamic linker.
* Check that COFF .obj files have sections with zero virtual address spaces. If
it turns out that some assembler/compiler produces these, we can change
COFFObjectFile::getRelocationOffset to subtract it. Given COFF format,
this can be done without the need for ErrorOr.
The getRelocationAddress method was never implemented for COFF. It also
had exactly one use in a very peculiar case: a shortcut for adding the
section value to a pcrel reloc on MachO.
Given that, I don't expect that there is any use out there of the C API. If
that is not the case, let me know and I will add it back with the implementation
inlined and do a proper deprecation.

Specifically, remove the dependent library interface and replace the existing
linker option interface with a new one that returns a single list of flags.
Differential Revision: http://reviews.llvm.org/D10820
llvm-svn: 241018
This change unifies how LTOModule and the backend obtain linker flags
for globals: via a new TargetLoweringObjectFile member function named
emitLinkerFlagsForGlobal. A new function LTOModule::getLinkerOpts() returns
the list of linker flags as a single concatenated string.
This change affects the C libLTO API: the function lto_module_get_*deplibs now
exposes an empty list, and lto_module_get_*linkeropts exposes a single element
which combines the contents of all observed flags. libLTO should never have
tried to parse the linker flags; it is the linker's job to do so. Because
linkers will need to be able to parse flags in regular object files, it
makes little sense for libLTO to have a redundant mechanism for doing so.
The new API is compatible with the old one. It is valid for a user to specify
multiple linker flags in a single pragma directive like this:
#pragma comment(linker, "/defaultlib:foo /defaultlib:bar")
The previous implementation would not have exposed
either flag via lto_module_get_*deplibs (as the test in
TargetLoweringObjectFileCOFF::getDepLibFromLinkerOpt was case sensitive)
and would have exposed "/defaultlib:foo /defaultlib:bar" as a single flag via
lto_module_get_*linkeropts. This may have been a bug in the implementation,
but it does give us a chance to fix the interface.

Reverse libLTO's default behaviour for preserving use-list order in
bitcode, and add API for controlling it. The default setting is now
`false` (don't preserve them), which is consistent with `clang`'s
default behaviour.
Users of libLTO should call `lto_codegen_should_embed_uselists(CG,true)`
prior to calling `lto_codegen_write_merged_modules()` whenever the
output file isn't part of the production workflow in order to reproduce
results with subsequent calls to `llc`.
(I haven't added tests since `llvm-lto` (the test tool for LTO) doesn't
support bitcode output, and even if it did: there isn't actually a good
way to test whether a tool has passed the flag. If the order is already
"natural" (if the order will already round-trip) then no use-list
directives are emitted at all. At some point I'll circle back to add
tests to `llvm-as` (etc.) that they actually respect the flag, at which
point I can somehow add a test here as well.)

These look like copy/paste errors, and shouldn't have the "prior to"

Summary:
If a pointer is marked as dereferenceable_or_null(N), LLVM assumes it
is either `null` or `dereferenceable(N)` or both. This change only
introduces the attribute and adds a token test case for the `llvm-as`
/ `llvm-dis`. It does not hook up other parts of the optimizer to
actually exploit the attribute -- those changes will come later.
For pointers in address space 0, `dereferenceable(N)` is now exactly
equivalent to `dereferenceable_or_null(N)` && `nonnull`. For other
address spaces, `dereferenceable(N)` is potentially weaker than
`dereferenceable_or_null(N)` && `nonnull` (since we could have a null
`dereferenceable(N)` pointer).
The motivating case for this change is Java (and other managed
languages), where pointers are either `null` or dereferenceable up to
some usually known-at-compile-time constant offset.

BDCE is a bit-tracking dead code elimination pass. It is based on ADCE (the
"aggressive DCE" pass), with the added capability to track dead bits of integer
valued instructions and remove those instructions when all of the bits are
dead.
Currently, it does not actually do this all-bits-dead removal, but rather
replaces the instruction's uses with a constant zero, and lets instcombine (and
the later run of ADCE) do the rest. Because we essentially get a run of ADCE
"for free" while tracking the dead bits, we also do what ADCE does and removes
actually-dead instructions as well (this includes instructions newly trivially
dead because all bits were dead, but not all such instructions can be removed).
The motivation for this is a case like:
int __attribute__((const)) foo(int i);
int bar(int x) {
x |= (4 & foo(5));
x |= (8 & foo(3));
x |= (16 & foo(2));
x |= (32 & foo(1));
x |= (64 & foo(0));
x |= (128& foo(4));
return x >> 4;
}
As it turns out, if you order the bit-field insertions so that all of the dead
ones come last, then instcombine will remove them. However, if you pick some
other order (such as the one above), the fact that some of the calls to foo()
are useless is not locally obvious, and we don't remove them (without this
pass).
I did a quick compile-time overhead check using sqlite from the test suite
(Release+Asserts). BDCE took ~0.4% of the compilation time (making it about
twice as expensive as ADCE).
I've not looked at why yet, but we eliminate instructions due to having
all-dead bits in:

Split `Metadata` away from the `Value` class hierarchy, as part of
PR21532. Assembly and bitcode changes are in the wings, but this is the
bulk of the change for the IR C++ API.
I have a follow-up patch prepared for `clang`. If this breaks other
sub-projects, I apologize in advance :(. Help me compile it on Darwin
I'll try to fix it. FWIW, the errors should be easy to fix, so it may
be simpler to just fix it yourself.
This breaks the build for all metadata-related code that's out-of-tree.
Rest assured the transition is mechanical and the compiler should catch
almost all of the problems.
Here's a quick guide for updating your code:
- `Metadata` is the root of a class hierarchy with three main classes:
`MDNode`, `MDString`, and `ValueAsMetadata`. It is distinct from
the `Value` class hierarchy. It is typeless -- i.e., instances do
*not* have a `Type`.
- `MDNode`'s operands are all `Metadata *` (instead of `Value *`).
- `TrackingVH<MDNode>` and `WeakVH` referring to metadata can be
replaced with `TrackingMDNodeRef` and `TrackingMDRef`, respectively.
If you're referring solely to resolved `MDNode`s -- post graph
construction -- just use `MDNode*`.
- `MDNode` (and the rest of `Metadata`) have only limited support for
`replaceAllUsesWith()`.
As long as an `MDNode` is pointing at a forward declaration -- the
result of `MDNode::getTemporary()` -- it maintains a side map of its
uses and can RAUW itself. Once the forward declarations are fully
resolved RAUW support is dropped on the ground. This means that
uniquing collisions on changing operands cause nodes to become
"distinct". (This already happened fairly commonly, whenever an
operand went to null.)
If you're constructing complex (non self-reference) `MDNode` cycles,
you need to call `MDNode::resolveCycles()` on each node (or on a
top-level node that somehow references all of the nodes). Also,
don't do that. Metadata cycles (and the RAUW machinery needed to
construct them) are expensive.
- An `MDNode` can only refer to a `Constant` through a bridge called
`ConstantAsMetadata` (one of the subclasses of `ValueAsMetadata`).
As a side effect, accessing an operand of an `MDNode` that is known
to be, e.g., `ConstantInt`, takes three steps: first, cast from
`Metadata` to `ConstantAsMetadata`; second, extract the `Constant`;
third, cast down to `ConstantInt`.
The eventual goal is to introduce `MDInt`/`MDFloat`/etc. and have
metadata schema owners transition away from using `Constant`s when
the type isn't important (and they don't care about referring to
`GlobalValue`s).
In the meantime, I've added transitional API to the `mdconst`
namespace that matches semantics with the old code, in order to
avoid adding the error-prone three-step equivalent to every call
site. If your old code was:
MDNode *N = foo();
bar(isa <ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(0)));
baz(cast <ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(1)));
bak(cast_or_null <ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(2)));
bat(dyn_cast <ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(3)));
bay(dyn_cast_or_null<ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(4)));
you can trivially match its semantics with:
MDNode *N = foo();
bar(mdconst::hasa <ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(0)));
baz(mdconst::extract <ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(1)));
bak(mdconst::extract_or_null <ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(2)));
bat(mdconst::dyn_extract <ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(3)));
bay(mdconst::dyn_extract_or_null<ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(4)));
and when you transition your metadata schema to `MDInt`:
MDNode *N = foo();
bar(isa <MDInt>(N->getOperand(0)));
baz(cast <MDInt>(N->getOperand(1)));
bak(cast_or_null <MDInt>(N->getOperand(2)));
bat(dyn_cast <MDInt>(N->getOperand(3)));
bay(dyn_cast_or_null<MDInt>(N->getOperand(4)));
- A `CallInst` -- specifically, intrinsic instructions -- can refer to
metadata through a bridge called `MetadataAsValue`. This is a
subclass of `Value` where `getType()->isMetadataTy()`.
`MetadataAsValue` is the *only* class that can legally refer to a
`LocalAsMetadata`, which is a bridged form of non-`Constant` values
like `Argument` and `Instruction`. It can also refer to any other
`Metadata` subclass.
(I'll break all your testcases in a follow-up commit, when I propagate
this change to assembly.)

Add API for specifying which `LLVMContext` each `lto_module_t` and
`lto_code_gen_t` is in.
In particular, this enables the following flow:
for (auto &File : Files) {
lto_module_t M = lto_module_create_in_local_context(File...);
querySymbols(M);
lto_module_dispose(M);
}
lto_code_gen_t CG = lto_codegen_create_in_local_context();
for (auto &File : FilesToLink) {
lto_module_t M = lto_module_create_in_codegen_context(File..., CG);
lto_codegen_add_module(CG, M);
lto_module_dispose(M);
}
lto_codegen_compile(CG);
lto_codegen_write_merged_modules(CG, ...);
lto_codegen_dispose(CG);
This flow has a few benefits.
- Only one module (two if you count the combined module in the code
generator) is in memory at a time.
- Metadata (and constants) from files that are parsed to query symbols
but not linked into the code generator don't pollute the global
context.
- The first for loop can be parallelized, since each module is in its
own context.
- When the code generator is disposed, the memory from LTO gets freed.

This adds a ScalarEvolution-powered transformation that updates load, store and
memory intrinsic pointer alignments based on invariant((a+q) & b == 0)
expressions. Many of the simple cases we can get with ValueTracking, but we
still need something like this for the more complicated cases (such as those
with an offset) that require some algebra. Note that gcc's
__builtin_assume_aligned's optional third argument provides exactly for this
kind of 'misalignment' offset for which this kind of logic is necessary.
The primary motivation is to fixup alignments for vector loads/stores after
vectorization (and unrolling). This pass is added to the optimization pipeline
just after the SLP vectorizer runs (which, admittedly, does not preserve SE,
although I imagine it could). Regardless, I actually don't think that the
preservation matters too much in this case: SE computes lazily, and this pass
won't issue any SE queries unless there are any assume intrinsics, so there
should be no real additional cost in the common case (SLP does preserve DT and
LoopInfo).

This commit adds scoped noalias metadata. The primary motivations for this
feature are:
1. To preserve noalias function attribute information when inlining
2. To provide the ability to model block-scope C99 restrict pointers
Neither of these two abilities are added here, only the necessary
infrastructure. In fact, there should be no change to existing functionality,
only the addition of new features. The logic that converts noalias function
parameters into this metadata during inlining will come in a follow-up commit.
What is added here is the ability to generally specify noalias memory-access
sets. Regarding the metadata, alias-analysis scopes are defined similar to TBAA
nodes:
!scope0 = metadata !{ metadata !"scope of foo()" }
!scope1 = metadata !{ metadata !"scope 1", metadata !scope0 }
!scope2 = metadata !{ metadata !"scope 2", metadata !scope0 }
!scope3 = metadata !{ metadata !"scope 2.1", metadata !scope2 }
!scope4 = metadata !{ metadata !"scope 2.2", metadata !scope2 }
Loads and stores can be tagged with an alias-analysis scope, and also, with a
noalias tag for a specific scope:
... = load %ptr1, !alias.scope !{ !scope1 }
... = load %ptr2, !alias.scope !{ !scope1, !scope2 }, !noalias !{ !scope1 }
When evaluating an aliasing query, if one of the instructions is associated
with an alias.scope id that is identical to the noalias scope associated with
the other instruction, or is a descendant (in the scope hierarchy) of the
noalias scope associated with the other instruction, then the two memory
accesses are assumed not to alias.
Note that is the first element of the scope metadata is a string, then it can
be combined accross functions and translation units. The string can be replaced
by a self-reference to create globally unqiue scope identifiers.
[Note: This overview is slightly stylized, since the metadata nodes really need
to just be numbers (!0 instead of !scope0), and the scope lists are also global
unnamed metadata.]
Existing noalias metadata in a callee is "cloned" for use by the inlined code.
This is necessary because the aliasing scopes are unique to each call site
(because of possible control dependencies on the aliasing properties). For
example, consider a function: foo(noalias a, noalias b) { *a = *b; } that gets
inlined into bar() { ... if (...) foo(a1, b1); ... if (...) foo(a2, b2); } --
now just because we know that a1 does not alias with b1 at the first call site,
and a2 does not alias with b2 at the second call site, we cannot let inlining
these functons have the metadata imply that a1 does not alias with b2.

This patch removes the functions llvm_start_multithreaded() and

Previously, it was possible to have compile-time support for

certain mutexes were not allocated or ever acquired. Now, if the

Sometimes a LLVM compilation may take more time then a client would like to
wait for. The problem is that it is not possible to safely suspend the LLVM
thread from the outside. When the timing is bad it might be possible that the
LLVM thread holds a global mutex and this would block any progress in any other
thread.
This commit adds a new yield callback function that can be registered with a
context. LLVM will try to yield by calling this callback function, but there is
no guaranteed frequency. LLVM will only do so if it can guarantee that
suspending the thread won't block any forward progress in other LLVM contexts
in the same process.
Once the client receives the call back it can suspend the thread safely and
resume it at another time.

This allows code to statically accept a Function or a GlobalVariable, but

This commit provides the necessary C/C++ APIs and infastructure to enable fine-
grain progress report and safe suspension points after each pass in the pass
manager.
Clients can provide a callback function to the pass manager to call after each
pass. This can be used in a variety of ways (progress report, dumping of IR
between passes, safe suspension of threads, etc).
The run listener list is maintained in the LLVMContext, which allows a multi-
threaded client to be only informed for it's own thread. This of course assumes
that the client created a LLVMContext for each thread.

* It is an incredibly specialized use case. The only reason MCJIT needs it is

selfhost.
The 'Core.h' C-API header is part of the IR LLVM library. (One might
even argue it should be called IR.h, but that's a separate point.) We
can't include it into a Support header without violating the layering,
and in a way that breaks modules. MemoryBuffer's opaque C type was being
defined in the Core.h C-API header despite being in the Support library,
and thus we ended up with this weird issue.
It turns out that there were other constructs from the Support library
in the Core.h header. This patch lifts all of them into Support.h and
then includes that into Core.h.
The only possible fallout is if someone was including Support.h and
relying on Core.h to be visible for their own uses. Considering the
narrow interface actually provided by the C-API for the Support library,
this seems a very, very unlikely mistake.

A 'remark' is information that is not an error or a warning, but rather some
additional information provided to the user. In contrast to a 'note' a 'remark'
is an independent diagnostic, whereas a 'note' always depends on another

information provided by the vectorizer about loops that have been vectorized.

This function adds an extra path argument to lto_module_create_from_memory.

- diag is a string that contains the diagnostic message.

Reapply r199191, reverted in r199197 because it carelessly broke
Other/link-opts.ll. The problem was that calling
createInternalizePass("main") would select
createInternalizePass(bool("main")) instead of
createInternalizePass(ArrayRef<const char *>("main")). This commit
fixes the bug.
The original commit message follows.
Add API to LTOCodeGenerator to specify a strategy for the -internalize
pass.
This is a new attempt at Bill's change in r185882, which he reverted in
r188029 due to problems with the gold linker. This puts the onus on the
linker to decide whether (and what) to internalize.
In particular, running internalize before outputting an object file may
change a 'weak' symbol into an internal one, even though that symbol
could be needed by an external object file --- e.g., with arclite.
This patch enables three strategies:
- LTO_INTERNALIZE_FULL: the default (and the old behaviour).
- LTO_INTERNALIZE_NONE: skip -internalize.
- LTO_INTERNALIZE_HIDDEN: only -internalize symbols with hidden
visibility.
LTO_INTERNALIZE_FULL should be used when linking an executable.
Outputting an object file (e.g., via ld -r) is more complicated, and
depends on whether hidden symbols should be internalized. E.g., for
ld -r, LTO_INTERNALIZE_NONE can be used when -keep_private_externs, and
LTO_INTERNALIZE_HIDDEN can be used otherwise. However,
LTO_INTERNALIZE_FULL is inappropriate, since the output object file will
eventually need to link with others.
lto_codegen_set_internalize_strategy() sets the strategy for subsequent
calls to lto_codegen_write_merged_modules() and lto_codegen_compile*().

This adds a loop rerolling pass: the opposite of (partial) loop unrolling. The
transformation aims to take loops like this:
for (int i = 0; i < 3200; i += 5) {
a[i] += alpha * b[i];
a[i + 1] += alpha * b[i + 1];
a[i + 2] += alpha * b[i + 2];
a[i + 3] += alpha * b[i + 3];
a[i + 4] += alpha * b[i + 4];
}
and turn them into this:
for (int i = 0; i < 3200; ++i) {
a[i] += alpha * b[i];
}
and loops like this:
for (int i = 0; i < 500; ++i) {
x[3*i] = foo(0);
x[3*i+1] = foo(0);
x[3*i+2] = foo(0);
}
and turn them into this:
for (int i = 0; i < 1500; ++i) {
x[i] = foo(0);
}
There are two motivations for this transformation:
1. Code-size reduction (especially relevant, obviously, when compiling for
code size).
2. Providing greater choice to the loop vectorizer (and generic unroller) to
choose the unrolling factor (and a better ability to vectorize). The loop
vectorizer can take vector lengths and register pressure into account when
choosing an unrolling factor, for example, and a pre-unrolled loop limits that
choice. This is especially problematic if the manual unrolling was optimized
for a machine different from the current target.
The current implementation is limited to single basic-block loops only. The
rerolling recognition should work regardless of how the loop iterations are
intermixed within the loop body (subject to dependency and side-effect
constraints), but the significant restriction is that the order of the
instructions in each iteration must be identical. This seems sufficient to
capture all current use cases.
This pass is not currently enabled by default at any optimization level.

Objective-C data structures.
This is allows tools such as darwin's otool(1) that uses the
LLVM disassembler take a pointer value being loaded by
an instruction and add a comment to what it is being referenced
to make following disassembly of Objective-C programs
more readable.
For example disassembling the Mac OS X TextEdit app one
will see comments like the following:
movq 0x20684(%rip), %rsi ## Objc selector ref: standardUserDefaults
movq 0x21985(%rip), %rdi ## Objc class ref: _OBJC_CLASS_$_NSUserDefaults
movq 0x1d156(%rip), %r14 ## Objc message: +[NSUserDefaults standardUserDefaults]
leaq 0x23615(%rip), %rdx ## Objc cfstring ref: @"SelectLinePanel"
callq 0x10001386c ## Objc message: -[[%rdi super] initWithWindowNibName:]
These diffs also include putting quotes around C strings
in literal pools and uses "symbol address" in the comment
when adding a symbol name to the comment to tell these
types of references apart:
leaq 0x4f(%rip), %rax ## literal pool for: "Hello world"
movq 0x1c3ea(%rip), %rax ## literal pool symbol address: ___stack_chk_guard
Of course the easy changes are in the LLVM disassembler and
the hard work is up to the implementer of the SymbolLookUp()
call back.

There are two ways one could implement hiding of linkonce_odr symbols in LTO:
* LLVM tells the linker which symbols can be hidden if not used from native
files.
* The linker tells LLVM which symbols are not used from other object files,
but will be put in the dso symbol table if present.
GOLD's API is the second option. It was implemented almost 1:1 in llvm by
passing the list down to internalize.
LLVM already had partial support for the first option. It is also very similar
to how ld64 handles hiding these symbols when *not* doing LTO.
This patch then
* removes the APIs for the DSO list.
* marks LTO_SYMBOL_SCOPE_DEFAULT_CAN_BE_HIDDEN all linkonce_odr unnamed_addr
global values and other linkonce_odr whose address is not used.
* makes the gold plugin responsible for handling the API mismatch.

I expose the API with some caveats:
- The C++ API involves a traditional void* opaque pointer for the fatal

opaque pointer makes any sense since this is a global callback - there will
only be one of them. So if you need to pass some data to your callback,
just put it in a global variable.
- The bindings will ignore the gen_crash_diag boolean. I ignore it because
(1) I don’t know what it does, (2) it’s not documented AFAIK, and (3) I
couldn’t imagine any use for it. I made the gut call that it probably

The printed latency is extracted from the schedule model available in the

It's useful for the memory managers that are allocating a section to know what the name of the section is.
At a minimum, this is useful for low-level debugging - it's customary for JITs to be able to tell you what
memory they allocated, and as part of any such dump, they should be able to tell you some meta-data about
what each allocation is for. This allows clients that supply their own memory managers to do this.
Additionally, we also envision the SectionName being useful for passing meta-data from within LLVM to an LLVM
client.
This changes both the C and C++ APIs, and all of the clients of those APIs within LLVM. I'm assuming that
it's safe to change the C++ API because that API is allowed to change. I'm assuming that it's safe to change
the C API because we haven't shipped the API in a release yet (LLVM 3.3 doesn't include the MCJIT memory

this function is the entry point for compilation with partition. Linker can
blindly call this function even if partition is turned off; in this case,

CodeModel: It's now possible to create an MCJIT instance with any CodeModel you like. Previously it was only possible to
create an MCJIT that used CodeModel::JITDefault.
EnableFastISel: It's now possible to turn on the fast instruction selector.
The CodeModel option required some trickery. The problem is that previously, we were ensuring future binary compatibility in
the MCJITCompilerOptions by mandating that the user bzero's the options struct and passes the sizeof() that he saw; the
bindings then bzero the remaining bits. This works great but assumes that the bitwise zero equivalent of any field is a
sensible default value.
But this is not the case for LLVMCodeModel, or its internal equivalent, llvm::CodeModel::Model. In both of those, the default
for a JIT is CodeModel::JITDefault (or LLVMCodeModelJITDefault), which is not bitwise zero.
Hence this change introduces LLVMInitializeMCJITCompilerOptions(), which will initialize the user's options struct with
defaults. The user will use this in the same way that they would have previously used memset() or bzero(). MCJITCAPITest.cpp
illustrates the change, as does the comment in ExecutionEngine.h.

Re-submitting with fix for OCaml dependency problems (removing dependency on SectionMemoryManager when it isn't used).

SSPStrong applies a heuristic to insert stack protectors in these situations:
* A Protector is required for functions which contain an array, regardless of
type or length.
* A Protector is required for functions which contain a structure/union which
contains an array, regardless of type or length. Note, there is no limit to
the depth of nesting.
* A protector is required when the address of a local variable (i.e., stack
based variable) is exposed. (E.g., such as through a local whose address is
taken as part of the RHS of an assignment or a local whose address is taken as
part of a function argument.)
This patch implements the SSPString attribute to be equivalent to
SSPRequired. This will change in a subsequent patch.

into their new header subdirectory: include/llvm/IR. This matches the
directory structure of lib, and begins to correct a long standing point
of file layout clutter in LLVM.
There are still more header files to move here, but I wanted to handle
them in separate commits to make tracking what files make sense at each
layer easier.
The only really questionable files here are the target intrinsic
tablegen files. But that's a battle I'd rather not fight today.
I've updated both CMake and Makefile build systems (I think, and my
tests think, but I may have missed something).
I've also re-sorted the includes throughout the project. I'll be
committing updates to Clang, DragonEgg, and Polly momentarily.

instructions in the assembly code variant if one exists.
The intended use for this is so tools like lldb and darwin's otool(1)
can be switched to print Intel-flavored disassembly.
I discussed extensively this API with Jim Grosbach and we feel
while it may not be fully general, in reality there is only one syntax
for each assembly with the exception of X86 which has exactly
two for historical reasons.

The linker will call `lto_codegen_add_must_preserve_symbol' on all globals that
should be kept around. The linker will pretend that a dylib is being created.

This function sets the `_exportDynamic' ivar. When that's set, we export all
symbols (e.g. we don't run the internalize pass). This is equivalent to the
`--export-dynamic' linker flag in GNU land:
--export-dynamic
When creating a dynamically linked executable, add all symbols to the dynamic
symbol table. The dynamic symbol table is the set of symbols which are visible
from dynamic objects at run time. If you do not use this option, the dynamic
symbol table will normally contain only those symbols which are referenced by
some dynamic object mentioned in the link. If you use dlopen to load a dynamic
object which needs to refer back to the symbols defined by the program, rather
than some other dynamic object, then you will probably need to use this option
when linking the program itself.
The Darwin linker will support this via the `-export_dynamic' flag. We should
modify clang to support this via the `-rdynamic' flag.

This is for the lldb team so most of but not all of the values are
to be printed as hex with this option. Some small values like the
scale in an X86 address were requested to printed in decimal
without the leading 0x.
There may be some tweaks need to places that may still be in
decimal that they want in hex. Specially for arm. I made my best
guess. Any tweaks from here should be simple.
I also did the best I know now with help from the C++ gurus
creating the cleanest formatImm() utility function and containing
the changes. But if someone has a better idea to make something
cleaner I'm all ears and game for changing the implementation.

Sooooo many of these had incorrect or strange main module includes.
I have manually inspected all of these, and fixed the main module
include to be the nearest plausible thing I could find. If you own or
care about any of these source files, I encourage you to take some time
and check that these edits were sensible. I can't have broken anything
(I strictly added headers, and reordered them, never removed), but they
may not be the headers you'd really like to identify as containing the
API being implemented.
Many forward declarations and missing includes were added to a header
files to allow them to parse cleanly when included first. The main
module rule does in fact have its merits. =]

Necessary to give disassembler users (like darwin's otool) a possibility to
dlopen libLTO and still initialize the required LLVM bits. This used to go
through libMCDisassembler but that's a gross layering violation, the MC layer
can't pull in functions from the targets. Adding a function to libLTO is a bit
of a hack but not worse than exposing other disassembler bits from libLTO.
Fixes PR14362.

Per the October 12, 2012 Proposal for annotated disassembly output sent out by
Jim Grosbach this set of changes implements this for X86 and arm. The llvm-mc
tool now has a -mdis option to produced the marked up disassembly and a couple
of small example test cases have been added.

Rationale: For each preprocessor macro, either the definedness is what's
meaningful, or the value is what's meaningful, or both. If definedness is
meaningful, we should use #ifdef. If the value is meaningful, we should use
and #ifdef interchangeably for the same macro, seems ugly to me, even if
undefined macros are zero if used.
This also has the benefit that including an LLVM header doesn't prevent
you from compiling with -Wundef -Werror.

make it more consistent with its intended semantics.
The `linker_private_weak_def_auto' linkage type was meant to automatically hide
globals which never had their addresses taken. It has nothing to do with the
`linker_private' linkage type, which outputs the symbols with a `l' (ell) prefix
among other things.
The intended semantic is more like the `linkonce_odr' linkage type.
Change the name of the linkage type to `linkonce_odr_auto_hide'. And therefore
changing the semantics so that it produces the correct output for the linker.
Note: The old linkage name `linker_private_weak_def_auto' will still parse but
is not a synonym for `linkonce_odr_auto_hide'. This should be removed in 4.0.

This was always part of the VMCore library out of necessity -- it deals
entirely in the IR. The .cpp file in fact was already part of the VMCore
library. This is just a mechanical move.
I've tried to go through and re-apply the coding standard's preferred
header sort, but at 40-ish files, I may have gotten some wrong. Please
let me know if so.
I'll be committing the corresponding updates to Clang and Polly, and
Duncan has DragonEgg.
Thanks to Bill and Eric for giving the green light for this bit of cleanup.

This lets you save the textual representation of the LLVM IR to a file.
Before this patch it could only be printed to STDERR from llvm-c.
